Great Lakes Roof & Exterior Cleaning on Roof Cleaning Versus Roof Repair


We make it our job to add life to homes simply and affordably. Cleaning a house’s exterior is a dirty job, and it takes more than just a garden hose to wash away the grime that can accumulate on roofs and siding. We provide a deep, thorough cleaning that makes a visible difference and will add years to the life of your exterior surfaces. So let our professional staff bring your home’s luster back while saving you money in the process.

Roof repair and roof cleaning are two very different services that have one same goal: make your roofing system better. So, if you are still undecided as to whether or not you really need to replace a few shingles on your roof, this article is for you. Specifically, we will talk about the different questions that you need to ask yourself that will help you decide whether you should call a specialist or not.

The simple and best answer here is that you should call the experts at Roof Cleaner right away. We won’t charge you for a visual inspection and evaluation. We can inspect your roof and tell you if you need some repairs, or if a good cleaning will extend the life of your roof a few more years.

Here is a list of questions that will help you decide:
1.      Is there moss, algae or lichen growth on the roof already? If yes, how much damage has it caused?

2.      How is the overall look of your roof? Does it look old, weathered, and ugly?

3.      Do you see any cracks or holes?

4.      Are there any missing or damaged shingles?

5.      How is your gutter system? Is it full of moss or other particles like sand, gravel, leaves, or twigs?

If you are still unsure about roof cleaning and roof repair, talk to professionals at Roof Cleaner today.

Spring Cleaning


With the temps getting into the 60's and even 70's here for the next 2 weeks it is time to start the spring cleaning.

In West Michigan there is a growing problem with roof stains/mold. This is an area of your home that should also get some spring cleaning done to it. This will not only extend the life of your shingles it will put that "curb" appeal back into your home.

As you are out on your walks or just taking a drive and enjoying our great spring like weather, take a look at the roofs in the neighborhood. I bet you will start to see roofs that are looking like they could use a good spring cleaning. If you know someone who needs a spring cleaning of their roof let them know about us. We appreciate and reward referrals.

If you do not want to mess with the washing of your roof or even the siding on your home, you can always call the professionals at Roof Cleaner. We have cleaned the roofs and siding of hundreds of local homes last year and would like to clean yours this year.

We only use a soft-wash method to clean your roof or your siding. By using our soft-wash system you are assured that there will be no damage done to the shingles or the siding, which can happen if a pressure washer is used to remove stains.

We offer a 2 year guarantee on all our cleaning.
